Ten Fingers

 

Chapter 3: Get Ready, Set, GO!

 

Kagome blinked, totally unaware as to what she should say. Should it be her first response; scream “Hell NO,” then run out? Or should it be her second response, laugh it off and pretend to not care. Or, should it be her third response, gawk at the possibility of spending time with the flirtatious Inuyasha? She bit her lip and Sango and Kikyo smiled, they knew what she was thinking. Or, rather, the gist of her thought process.

 

“Pervert,” It was Kikyo to voice her thought, which earned her a glare from Kagome.

 

“I don't think I care at this point,” Kagome said hesitantly. Sure, she did, but if she was going away and, depending on how bad things may get here, very far away. So she might as well enjoy it, right? Kagome took a deep breath. “It depends on what he says to the whole idea and, if he agrees, I wouldn't mind going to the movies with him or something.”

 

Kikyo and Sango squealed. They were fairly surprised that Kagome would so readily agree to such an act, but, knew that if Kagome resented the idea, they would force her to do it anyways. When it comes to Kinky and Sango-ho, they always get what they want.

Two minutes. Were they ever going to come out? Five minutes. Six minutes. Did Inuyasha say something that terrible? Eight minutes. The boys were just about to walk to the bathrooms to try and overhear what the girls were discussing for such a long time when the waiter arrived with their meals.

 

“No use letting this wonderfully-smelling food get cold, right buddy?” Miroku grinned, the thought of food caused his mouth to salivate.

 

Inuyasha took a big whiff of his French toast, “Yeah. Let's eat.” Just as they raised their forks, three women came trotting in, handbags in tow.

 

“Oh yummy! Food is served. We're just in time, eh girls?” Kikyo said, sitting down to enjoy her breakfast. Kagome and Sango nodded in response. “Oh, and Inuyasha, I'll have to have a word with you later on during school,” she looked around at everyone currently stuffing their mouths with food. “In private,” Kikyo said in a sensual tone, winking. Inuyasha shivered. Miroku snorted, then was elbowed in the side by Sango.

 

All in all, the day seemed very unpromising to Inuyasha. His only thoughts were `I should have gone to work today.'

 

~~

“Thus, the relationship between Hitler and Bush is that they both fell back upon the “terrorist” incident to get what they wanted in the end.” Inuyasha snickered as the majority of the class laughed. The people who were not laughing were people who were pro-Bush, but Inuyasha knew that today they would leave the classroom with a better political understanding of what was going on around the world.

 

“And I thought you never paid attention to my lectures, Inuyasha,” professor Jaken said, still slightly amused over Inuyasha's performance. “And here I thought you'd to take the easy way out and ditch school.” Jaken sneered at Inuyasha's pervious way of dealing with an unexpected task.

 

“Silly Jaken, that's what you get for thinking,” Inuyasha said, smiling at the furious-looking Jaken. “Well, I'd love to stay and mock your intelligence all day, professor, but I have to “ditch school” now. Adios!” With that last statement, Inuyasha waved at his fuming professor, winked at the swooning girls, and left the classroom, now he could go to work.

 

Unfortunately for Inuyasha, he ran into Kikyo, who was waiting outside his classroom door, Sango accompanying her. “Aw fuck! And here I thought I'd avoid you for the rest of the day.” Kikyo and Sango laughed, Sango laughing the loudest. Inuyasha furrowed his brows, “Kinky and Sang-HO, what is it that you need? I'm a busy man and I have places to go and people to do.” Inuyasha smirked and moved closer to Kikyo, raking a hand along her delicate cheek bone, then whispered into her ear, “But if it's me you're you want, just tell me. You know how I hate to beg, unless you're into that kind of thing.” Inuyasha licked the tip of Kikyo's ear, inwardly disliking the taste of her, but continuing anyways to torture her. Kikyo nearly fell to her feet and almost took him up on his offer, had Sango not, according to Kikyo, rudely interrupted them.

 

“The only thing you have to worry about, Puppy, is taking care of a good friend of OURS,” Sango emphasized the last word, hoping to give Kikyo a guilt trip in almost allowing Inuyasha to seduce her. Kikyo flinched at the tone of Sango's voice, feeling guilty, much to Sango's delight.

 

Inuyasha backed away from Kikyo, looked at the two of them, figured they meant well, and walked off.

 

“Hey! Get back here! We're not done talking,” Sango yelled, running to catch up to Inuyasha's long stride.

 

He looked back and called over his shoulder, “Walk with me to my bike and we'll talk there.” Inuyasha turned away and continued to walk away, half hoping they would give up and let him be in peace.

 

It was no use though.

 

In the parking lot, Inuyasha stopped by where his motorcycle was parked, and faced the women, both of whom he managed to not lose.

 

“About damn time!” It was Sango who said it, though there was a glint of humor in her eyes, telling Inuyasha he was still on cool grounds.

 

“So what is it that you two wanted from me? This better not be for drugs, because you two of all people should know that I'd never sell that shit.” Inuyasha glared, only now thinking of reasons as to why they would have any business with him.

 

“Hold your horses, cowboy,” Kikyo put up her hands, “We don't want that from you.”

 

“Good, now what is it that that you do want?”

 

“A favor,” Sango said. Inuyasha blinked and nearly fell to the ground. “For Kagome.”

 

“WHAT!?” Inuyasha gasped, holding onto his bike now for balance. “What does she want with me? I barely know the chick.”

 

“Which is exactly why we need you to do this favor for her.” Kikyo picked up, “Kagome, as you well know, lost a major portion of her high school social life by studying and working her ass off to get into college. We just want you to perform this simple favor for Kagome so that she can enjoy her time here before she goes off”

 

“Yeah, and what does that have to do with me?” Inuyasha said, scornfully. “Didn't she get accepted to all kinds of universities? She even got into Sotheby's Institute of Art in London, right?”

 

Kikyo and Sango blinked at his last statement.

 

“You mean where my father works?” Kikyo asked.

 

Inuyasha froze. “Your father works there? My GOD! Help me get into that school!” Immediately Inuyasha went onto his knees, begging repeatedly on how he would love Kikyo if she recommended him to her father to get into the school. “Please, I am begging you! Just mention him to me and I'll have your baby. I'll do anything you want, give you anything you want!”

 

“Stop this, Inuyasha!” Kikyo yelled, paranoid at seeing the suave Inuyasha grovel at her feet. “I'll tell my father about you if-”

 

“If you do the favor for Kagome,” Sango cut in. Kikyo gave her an angry look; Sango shrugged her shoulders and mouthed the words `For the sake of Kagome.'

 

“Okay. Just tell me what you want from me.”

 

~~ I thought this would be a great time to stop it, however, since my other chapters were so very short, I'll try to make this one much longer. ~~

 

“I want you to sum up your entire high school “fun life” for Kagome before the school year ends,” Sango said, feeling a bit bad for nearly blackmailing Inuyasha, this isn't how she planned it to be.

 

“That only gives me a couple of months!” Inuyasha exclaimed, now fully composed and back to his cool, collective self, “I did a lot of things in high school, how can I possibly give that to someone I don't even know in a couple of months!?”

 

“We don't know,” Kikyo said, looking at the ground, “that's why we chose you instead of the other guys Kagome may know of. You're the one with the creativity and mind of a rebellious punk, waiting for his sweet, innocent girl to come so that he can warp her to become to woman she wants to be!” Kikyo raised her fist into the air, forgetting about the ground now.

 

“Oh,” was the only thing Inuyasha said. If it was from utter horror at what he had witnessed, or if it was from recognition from his true desires, no one may know.

 

“Excellent, here is her address, number and some personal information about her,” Sango said, “She will be waiting for you to take her somewhere sometime this week. You better call her to tell her exactly when and where this place will be. Also, you will pick her up and drop her off from every single date you two go on.”

 

“Why is that?” Inuyasha asked, slightly annoyed.

 

“Because she can't legally drive by herself yet. She still has to wait one more month until she can drive alone. Don't ask me why she won't just ditch the rules and drive.” Kikyo stated, shrugging her shoulders.

 

“That's what you need to help her do though, Inuyasha,” Sango said, “You need to help her let go and be free. You need to let her throw the Rule Book out the window, and drive all over it, while wearing six inch Gucci stilettos.” Sango laughed at the thought of seeing an insane-looking Kagome running over a big brown book with expensive high heels on.

 

“Or better yet! Jimmy Choo stilettos!” Kikyo laughed, Sango joining her. Inuyasha just stood there, dumbfounded, wondering if he'll ever get the way women's minds work.

 

“Nah,” he said, “if I do that then I'll end up like how Mel Gibson was in his movie; a cross-dresser.”

 

“What was that, Puppy?” Sango asked.

 

“I said,” Inuyasha rolled his eyes, “It's a deal. Now leave me alone, I've wasted enough time as it is. You ladies aren't paying me twenty bucks an hour, so leave me alone now!” With that said, Inuyasha threw his leg over his bike, started up the engine, and sped off, campus security yelling incoherently as he zoomed past them.

 

“We have ourselves a deal! Now all we need to do is tell Kagome and go shopping for some sexy clothes!” Kikyo and Sango screamed in unison, giggling back to the school.

 

~~

 

It was now officially boring. Kagome was sitting in her fourth period class, twiddling her hair. There was a sub today in class and the only thing he did was take role and claim to have not found a lesson plan for the class. When Kagome was going to tell the substitute what they were suppose to do (take a test on the book 1984, by George Orwell) but was silenced by everyone in the class. So here she was, drawing herself sitting at her desk with a gun pointed to her head, thinking about if Inuyasha really would give her the time of day.

 

Then in walked Kikyo and Sango, a grin plastered onto both their faces. They received some whistles from the boys in the classroom, murmurs from most of the girls, but ignored everyone. Except Kagome.

 

“Oh dear, sweet Kagome. Where art thou hast been all morning? Thy best friends of thees hath been on an odyssey that will change thee life forever and a day!” Kikyo exclaimed, showing off her knowledge from her British Lit course that she'd been taking this year.

 

“But first, we must steal you away!” Sango grabbed Kagome's hand and rushed her out of the class before anyone, who cared, would notice.

 

“Sango! I have class to attend!” Kagome protested, granted, she was pleased to be taken out of the class.

 

“It was boring in there, and besides, lunch is next. You'll be back before fifth period even begins,” Kikyo rationalized. “Please come with us,” Kikyo gave Kagome the puppy-eyed look and stuck her bottom lip out. “Please?”

 

Kagome bit her lip. `Score,' Kikyo thought, `she's hooked!'

 

“We'll be back before class starts again?”

 

“Yes, Kagome. We will, we're just going to do a quick walk by of the shopping mall. You know, they have a new line of perfume from Giorgio Armani, I believe it is called Sensi White, and I want to purchase it before anyone else does,” Sango said, smiling at her friend.

 

“Promise?” Kagome said, hesitantly.

 

“Of course we do,” Sango and Kikyo said, crossing their fingers behind their backs.
